I will start by investing in MMF first and use the interest from it to buy a land.

I'd rent first and invest the money while I figure out the best move. Having โ‚ฆ200 million doesn't mean you should rush into tying a huge chunk of it down in a house. Let your money work for you before you start building your dream home.

Rent one and commit a portion to start and complete the structural work up to roofing level and invest the rest and use the profit from my business to finish the house in at most 5 years time

Build if you have the land, time and patience. Buy a ready property if you want to move in faster. Either way, owning beats renting forever.

Buy a land in good location in Abuja, rent an average home and put some into a business with cash flow.

None of the above. Go and find a relative house and stay for 5 years. Endure whatever hardship. Invest that whole money to an MMF. That will give you 16% annually 2.6M monthly. Buy your land, Be building quietly as you are there In less than 3 years, house done, capital dey!

I will rent first. Put the money in a federal gov't bond or a MMF at 18% annual return. That will give me N36M per year, I will use 6M to sort the rent fee and other expenses. I will re-invest the N30M in another asset, that way I will get returns from my returns.

God forbid I build a house with the capital. I will remain where I am. N200m in fixed deposit of 18% that's N36m annually, use it to be building your house while the capital still remains. In 3-4 years you have a mansion.

Rent. I will put that in fgn bond at 20 percent. Be rolling 40m yearly. I will go to the family house to whine them for 6 months before the first 20m will drop in 6 months.

Rent first. Lock 70% of the rest in MMF. From year 5, start building or paying installments for a house.
